ᏚᏳᎪᏛ- "Truth"

Ithaca College invites all as we commemorate the rich history and cultures of the indigenous and first peoples of our land. This campus-wide educational programming series provides learning opportunities through lectures, presentations, performances, film screenings with discussions, and other efforts, to honor native cultures and the history of our country.

 

Indian" Season: Cultural Appropriation, Popular Culture, and Racializing Native Peoples- Thursday, November 10, Taughannock Falls, 12:10pm (SLI Credit)

This presentation takes a look at the seasonal time of year when America brings the idea of the Indian out from its closet of history and puts "things Indian" on display. The time frame is Columbus Day to Halloween to Thanksgiving. Dr. Michael Taylor (CSCRE) will lead this discussion and examine the other contexts which are part of this "season."

Refreshments will be provided.

Through the collaborative efforts of the Office of Student Engagement and Multicultural Affairs, our campus partners in various departments and offices, and our student organizations, we are able to provide various opportunities to learn, share, celebrate, empower, and appreciate Latinx Heritage Month, Native Heritage: 1st Peoples Month, Black History Month, and Focus Asia Month.
